[edit] Kanwen

Kanwen (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable and vanity page. No citations included or exist. YCCHAN 07:55, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy delete. The article mentions he's a politician but says nothing about the position he holds or has held in the past. Nothing specific. --70.81.23.96 08:32, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - unverifiable, contradictorily, only 8 GHits incl. Wikipedia. Page creator 132.206.67.45 stated that Kanwen was mayor of Shanghai at the age of 22, some hours later an ip from the same range changed the content to this, and - you've assumed it - both ips are registered to McGill University, Department of Electrical Engineering. And he is also a nice guy. --Oxymoron⁸³ 08:47, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
  • I know I'm stating the obvious here, but nobody by this name (or anything similar) was ever mayor of Shanghai. There's a list of the real mayors at Politics of Shanghai. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:45, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete article is more about the subject's grandfather than the subject, and in any case asserts no notability for either of them. A trout slap to us all for allowing this crap to sit around for over two years!! Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:43, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
